Gratitude #20

#20 We’re on lockdown. Ben had a temp on the weekend so that’s us now, self isolating for 14 days! 😳 The good things are: a) I don’t mind being in! b) Ben’s symptoms were very mild so if it was cv and the others get it, hopefully won’t be too bad. c) One of my husband’s gifts is working as a teacher so he has drawn up a timetable for the kids to follow. It includes exercise and packing as well as English and Maths! We’re moving house in two weeks (in theory!! 😬😬) #gratitude #gratitudepoem
